Narrative:
On takeoff during rotation; left engine egt went to 1071C. Pilot monitoring (pm) reduced thrust lever at 400 feet; and had to retard thrust lever almost to idle to bring egt within limits (extinguish red EICAS). Stopped climb at 5000 feet. Consulted QRH; then reestablished thrust and observed egt start to rise again; and run about 50C hotter than right engine although within limits. Maintenance advised moc; and we advised dispatch. I discussed options with dispatch vs return to the departure airport (parts; maintenance etc) and a short time later the dispatcher concurred and we returned to the departure airport with no special handling from ATC. Back on the ramp maintenance was showing egt 1071C for 38 seconds on the status page.
